Moonlighting

I have been looking forward to take some shots of the full moon for quite some time now, and finally got the opportunity while we were at Leshiba in the Soutpansberg mountains. There was a little bit of a breeze around that evening which allowed me to create interesting effects with the moving clouds. Let me know what you think of it!

Wild

During a visit to Leshiba a few weeks ago we were fortunate enough to get quite close to a herd of giraffe and blue wildebeest. These shots were not taken under the best light conditions, but after a little bit of experimenting with the post-processing the images came out as follows: (Click on the images for hi-res versions)

This was my first real attempt at wildlife photography, so crits and comments will be appreciated!
